I'd just like to understand why these cars/events hold so much appeal to you guys, who can almost certainly be considered a collection of the better racers playing the game.
Do you not find them unchallenging to race?
The events that have proved the most rewarding throughout my time with Gran Turismo (not just this one, but all of those before it), are those where the featured car requires enormous amounts of concentration and work to maintain adhesion with the track, balancing steering, throttle and brakes to glide the car around it. Typically a combination of a rear wheel drive car, fewer driving aids, and poor tyres relative to the car.
And yet, most days 2 of the 3 events are Scalextric events, whereby even with all driving aids off, these Gr.3 and Gr.4 cars typically don't require much work from the driver to get them around the track quickly.
So, what am I missing? Is it because the more difficult an event is, the more differentiation there is between the drivers, and so the less competitive the racing is and less consistent the driver needs to be? I'd love to understand.
